Not so much fan of the cover because of the glasses, I need eye contact!
I was sick of the gardens, b/w photos ,grey backdrops & houses
this reminded me old Meisel, with this great and fresh ideas, two in a row for Steven,
first W Mag with the Fake ads, and now this great editorial, welcome back Mr Meisel

Everyone loves this ed, loves Meisel (including me), I wonder what will everyone say about Meisel in next month, if he offers again another studio editorial with some new faces (because it's big chance to see newbies for December issue since there were all top-models on 4 covers in a row).

I couldn't be more in love with the cover and the main editorial that goes along with it. It's insanely beautiful! Everything looks perfect. I especially applaud Carlyne for the styling cause she really did a wonderful job in this one. As well as Raquel's modeling prowess who nailed each shot. Glad that she got this one and damn, second VI cover in a year! And lastly, I knew that Meisel hasn't lost his high fashion sense yet when it comes to producing quality fashion stories for VI. Such a really good job!

Now I'll be definitely picking this up even if the other editorials aren't that good enough. I think I'm already sold just for the main story alone.

The energy of Raquel and Meisel's story really reminds me of "State of Emergency" with Iselin and Hilary. I love what I'm seeing thus far.

I was to say this one.

Just noticed that this is the second time they used "Highly Styled" on the cover. The last one was with the October 2002 issue with Liya Kebede on the cover.
